  • Thanks Everyone! I really appreciate the input. I've noticed that while most are low in carbs make up for a high calorie intake so it'll definitely take additional planning on my part. Good to know that its not completely off the table though!
  • My hubby got that and it helped alot. I was sooo thirsty last night, I couldn't even keep water down, so he got that for me to kinda help with my salivating, that didnt work so well lol but it helped with nausea. I actually haven't eaten much but dry bread, water and sips of gingerale.
  • Sweets are the same for me, esp during TOM. We all slip from time to time. Thats why I try to build in cheats for me so I can fit in rewards. If you're feeling really guilty take a walk, or try extra hard to finish the day with a healthier meal plan. God knows I've been weak in the past, I've totally been there, one muffin…
  • Well it didn't murder my Radar...however it certainly did upset my stomach, but then again my stomach's been kinda revolting this new diet for a couple days now.
  • No, I don't really do cheeseburgers, but sadly he broke me and I got a simple chicken wrap.
  • lol He just doesn't want to cook (but the bun is a carb which is also a no no).
  • I was diagnosed with PCOS back in 2014. I thought it was just a fertility thing but I got pregnant right after. I had no idea it affected weight loss. Back in the fall I cut added sugars out of my diet and lost some weight but perhaps the PCOS stunted that? Perhaps its something to talk to the doc about.
  • Yea were kinda there now, we talked about modifying it. Though hubby is pushing for a cheeseburger for dinner.
  • Well one of things that I wanted to kind of accomplish was to desensitize myself towards sweet things. Not sure if that's the right way of wording it but an example is coffee. I can't drink it unless I have a lot of cream and sugar. My friend and I always joke that we take coffee in our sweet cream. I would typically use…
  • I haven't eaten there since virus spread, I'm just too concerned. I don't plan to boycott permanently but just plan to wait a bit
  • I don't but thank you for saying that :). The aftermath is what I am concerned about, after the 21 days I wanted to go back kinda go.back to what I was doing in the fall and trying to remove/limit added sugars. However I can have a horrible willpower so I'll definitely need to.focus on that.
  • Well the last time I did a "no sugar" I did allow myself treats I just did sugarless, like sugarless candy, Truvia in my coffee, coke zero, etc. When the 21 days are over (assuming we are successful) I plan to continue that way and work on my cravings and giving in.
  • Yea it is, I was cutting up fruit for the baby for lunch today and wanted to eat a piece so bad lol
  • All fruits except for green apples and green tipped bananas, but you still have a limit on those. Most veggies are good except for corn
  • I think I have bad cravings honestly. I crave sugar in the afternoons when I have down time (I've been trying to stay busy) and when I have a particularly savory meal, other times too. I try when I shop to buy healthier options to curb those cravings, one of my goals by doing this 21 day thing is to help curb them.
  • Yes that's the one, and we got her one book I couldn't find the other but it went into discussion on the diet and philosophy behind it but not in detail because it more of the meal planner book. I did see some mention of paleo. Our intentions aren't to go to paleo but it does make sense to do for those who are going to.…
  • Okay lots of replies I wasn't expecting lol, but I appreciate it. So no I don't think sugar is bad in fact I find it odd that no fruit isn't even allowed but alas I picked this one and decided to go for it. I really just picked it to try it, it sounded like a good plan, my hubby was on board so we decided to go for it (in…
  • Hi Juliana, congrats on your engagement! I hear where you are coming from infact in some of my wedding pictures I noticed how much weight I actually had put on and it bothers me. One thing I do to motivate me (on the weeks i actually do good) is put pictures and reminders everywhere I go/see so on my phone, my desktop,…
  • Hey Diana! I am here for that as well hopefully we can support each other.
  • How do you like Alli? I was thinking of taking it myself
  • I'd like that :)
  • Why thank you! I appreciate it. When I was home with her it was so easy to just eat, especially since I couldn't BF I didn't any more restrictions. I also tend to stress eat, that's a HUGE issue for me. I recently lost my job so I'm at home with her now. It's great but at first it was so easy for me to just go out and grab…
